“Now to each one the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good. To one there is given through the Spirit a message of wisdom, to another a message of knowledge by means of the same Spirit,” (1 Corinthians 12:7-8) I received a message of wisdom just the other day. Wisdom is the… Continue reading Word of Wisdom

Deliverance Ministry
One of Yeshua’s principle ministries, besides healing, was deliverance. A father brought his young son to Yeshua, saying, “A spirit seizes him and he suddenly screams; it throws him into convulsions so that he foams at the mouth. It scarcely ever leaves him and is destroying him…Even while the boy was coming, the demon threw… Continue reading Deliverance Ministry
A Dream of Loss
My wife took our one year old granddaughter to Mother’s Day out which she had recently started, joining her older sister, who enjoys her “school”. Upon her return, she remarked, “Ezra threw a crying fit when I dropped her off at daycare.” I imagined the scenario, as we have several young grandchildren and they can… Continue reading A Dream of Loss
Sin in the Camp
“This is what the Lord says: “Cursed is the one who trusts in man, who draws strength from mere flesh and whose heart turns away from the Lord.” (Jeremiah 17:5) The church has placated the lost; acquiescing to their accusations the Bible is irrelevant today; kept silent about the certainty of Hell fire, lest they… Continue reading Sin in the Camp
A Contrite Spirit
"For thus says the High and Lofty OneWho inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy:'I dwell in the high and holy place,With him who has a contrite and humble spirit,To revive the spirit of the humble, And to revive the heart of the contrite ones.' " Isaiah 57:15 " 'For all those things My hand has… Continue reading A Contrite Spirit
Absolutes
With God all things are possible, put another way, the impossible becomes reality. Our trouble is our duplicity and brokenness which is inherent in our failings. No one is perfect, but perfection is often required and always preferred. God demands perfection from us. In the beginning, He told Adam and Eve, “You must not eat… Continue reading Absolutes
Prayer Debriefing 9
Lord God Almighty, in the name of Yeshua we pray, the name above all names. For these who follow you or seek you, we pray and ask that their hearts and eyes will be fixed on you. There is no other source of help or aid, but you Lord are gracious and compassionate, forgiving our… Continue reading Prayer Debriefing 9
Repurposed
I work with wood, always have, even as a child. When I was very young, I found last years tomato sticks, cut off some sound pieces, planned, sanded and joined them together to make a small plank and painted a bird on it for my Mother. She hung it up in a corner of her… Continue reading Repurposed
Transgenderism
"A woman shall not wear anything that pertains to a man, nor shall a man put on a woman’s garment, for all who do so are an abomination to the Lord your God." Deuteronomy 22:5 "So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He… Continue reading Transgenderism
Gifts and Call Activated
God gives gifts to His children for benefit of His family on earth. The actualization of those gifts is the fulfillment of God’s purposes. The enemy has figured this out over time, seeing how wonderful, effective and glorious is God’s design and plan for mankind. He seeks to kill, steal and destroy through lies and… Continue reading Gifts and Call Activated
Your Miracle
Do you believe in miracles? If so, truly, are they limited; to Old Testament times; to the First Century when Yeshua (Jesus) was on earth and the first disciples and church were new? Are miracles only signs from God as validation or direction? Did Yeshua do any miracles simply out of His compassion or mercy?… Continue reading Your Miracle
Political Correctness In The First Century
You might think political correctness is a modern development created by modern thought and values of this superior generation. No, Solomon was right in his time, there is nothing new under the sun, political correctness included. Yeshua, (Jesus’ Hebrew name) observed in the leaders of His day, “They worship me in vain; their teachings are… Continue reading Political Correctness In The First Century
God Perfect in Relationship
Of all the things we could describe about God’s perfect nature, I believe His interpersonal dealing with us might be the last. How many people actually consider a personal relationship with God possible? Such an assertion got Yeshua crucified and those bold enough to speak of it often are ridiculed or ostracized. Of course, scripture… Continue reading God Perfect in Relationship
Your Last Act
If you wasted your life, it is unlikely you will be able to finish well, unless the Lord Yeshua intervenes, but anyone who knows the the Lord of Heaven and earth, will finish in one final act worthy of God’s Son, the redeemer of mankind. Who can say they have lived their life for Kingdom… Continue reading Your Last Act
Our Enemies Relevance
I wrote a post entitled, “Your Enemies”. It was right, but the Spirit has expounded further on the subject. David had many enemies, powerful and even within his own family, Absolam and Michal. Yeshua had enemies that were seeking to kill him, even in the Sanhedrin. Psalm 22 is a prophetic pictorial of our Messiah… Continue reading Our Enemies Relevance
Prayer Debriefing 8
“And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.” (Ephesians 6:18) This Word of God is our guide, but God’s faithfulness encourages us to seek the Spirit’s heart for each follower of Yeshua,… Continue reading Prayer Debriefing 8
Your Enemies
Many people don’t consider they have any enemies, perhaps they’re right, except for the one enemy of mankind, Satan. (1 Pet. 5:8) Yeshua has defeated Satan’s power over God’s Children and is destroying his works. (1 John 3:8) For the rest of us who think we have enemies, whether true or only imagined, it can… Continue reading Your Enemies
Hope’s Substance
Imagine if you got a message from a reliable source that the problem you’re facing would be gone soon. Recently, I went to a doctor who told me, “I think this will clear up in a few weeks. I don’t think you should be concerned; in time I think you will get better.” His optimism… Continue reading Hope’s Substance
Thoughts On The Path
When we come before the Judgment seat of Messiah, we will be naked, empty handed and an accounting will be required. The books will be opened and every careless word and selfish motive, every denial of knowing Yeshua, every evil act clear and plain for all to see. Our only hope will be in knowing… Continue reading Thoughts On The Path
Every Fact Recorded
There is a fact disclosed in the Bible that is remarkable, well, there are many, but this little tidbit is fascinating. “But I tell you that everyone will have to give account on the day of judgment for every empty word they have spoken. For by your words you will be acquitted, and by your… Continue reading Every Fact Recorded
Hyper Separation
This is a dark subject, but I only bring it up in hope that light will pierce the darkness. To be separated from God is Hell, whether you believe it or not. If you doubt or have problems with Believers or those who pretend to, but are not, that is a different thing, as many… Continue reading Hyper Separation
Light in the Darkness
Yeshua, (Jesus’ Hebrew name) said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” (John 8:12) Today, a great darkness is falling on the world, particularly in America where lies, hypocrisy, injustice, crime and corruption are rampant. Even darker is the delusional… Continue reading Light in the Darkness
The Lord My Healer
“Jehovah Rapha”, is the name of God in Hebrew meaning the Lord my Healer. God is our healer, He designed our body to heal itself; does He want us to experience healing? We get sick from colds, viruses, injured in accidents, diseased from infections and have various physical disorders. Some ailments modern medicine cannot even… Continue reading The Lord My Healer
Unconditional Thankfulness
I know the scriptures and teaching, but a loss knocked me off my feet and I was whirling around in an uncertain consideration of how to meet or deal with what may be a new permanent reality. It takes a lot of effort to adjust to or resist challenges that arise. Whatever we decide should… Continue reading Unconditional Thankfulness
The Blessed Forgiven
"Blessed is the one whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered. Blessed is the man against whom the Lord counts no iniquity, and in whose spirit is no deceit.... I acknowledged my sin to you, and I did not cover my iniquity; I said, 'I will confess my transgressions to the Lord,' and you forgave the iniquity of my sin.… Continue reading The Blessed Forgiven
